Soccer field detailing positions
This is an average soccer field with positions, Goalie (G), Sweeper (SW), Left Defense (LD), Stopper (ST), Right Defense (RD), Left Midfield (LM), Right Midfield (RM), Center Midfield (CM), Left Forward (LF), Center Forward (CF), and Right Forward (RF). The job of a forward is to get the ball into the back of the other team's net. Midfields are supposed to dribble the ball or "boot" it up the field to the forwards and to keep the other team from scoring. Defense "protect" the goal, but taking out or stopping the other teams offense from scoring, but without playing "dirty". Playing "dirty" inside the larger box results in a PK, a penalty kick is a direct shot, meaning that the kicker can score without anyone else touching the ball. Only the goalie can block a PK. Several PK's are taken throughout Tangerine. In one game a player of the opposite team yells offsides! Offsides is an act of getting passed the ball when the only person between you and the goal is the goalie. But if you dribble past then it is not offsides, but if the pass enters that area before you do, it isn't offsides. Offsides is usually a very difficult concept to show, and if anyone else knows something, please add!!!

In Tangerine Paul plays soccer for his school. Soccer is the world's most popular sport. The modern version of soccer was first played by the English, but early versions of the game can be traced back to to China where they played a kicking game. Or also with Mezoamerican cultures praticing a game that was a combination of soccer and basketball. On the 21st of May 1904, representatives from seven European soccer associations met in paris and organized the Fédération Internationale de Football Association also known as FIFA. It is a soccer tournament whose winners are considered world champions. In 1930 the first World Cup tournament was held in Uruguay, which they won :) The FIFA only occurs every four years.
